"I am stupid and fell for this prank. Although I was aware of all sorts of frauds but unfortunately fell for this one after I searched the number online and came to National Defence and Canadian Forces Ombudsman- I thought it's legit. They said I've been a victim of Identity theft and there is a warrant under my name. They were on the phone with the the whole day and kept insisting that this is a private investigation and that it's confidential and under no circumstance should I get disconnected. They asked my for SIN, didn't ask me to provide bank info, just bank names and the amount I had on them. Then they requested I withdraw a big sum out and deposit into a bitcoin machine. At this point I was very suspicious and kept asking them questions but every time they convinced me that it's legit and they need to verify this money bla bla bla. I did deposit the amount. They had told me 30 minutes after they will refund the money. After an hour the deposit was done they said there has been technical difficulties. Then said they will contact me in the morning. By which time I had become very suspicious but couldn't find any reports online up to couple of hours ago. Where I saw the report listed here Mark Hamilton was the person in contacted with me as well. They contacted me again and said the money I had deposited was not released and they wanted me to call the company and have them on the line with me. I was lucky the company was closed at the time. After doing much research I came across a recorded phone conversation with the same exact tran. At this point I ran to the police station and they confirmed it's a fraud and insisted I contact the company where I had deposited the money. I did and luckily they had already put a red flag on the account. Hopefully I get my money back. The police told me that although this number seems legit, it's not. They use an app that mirrors the number. Don't fall for this like I did"

"Got several calls from this number stating that the Ombudsman and Service Ontario had invoked legal action against my SIN card.

They are pure fraud. Unfortunately, their accusations were very convincing and I unwittingly gave them my SIN number...not realizing they were FRAUD. PLEASE BEWARE! DO NOT GIVE AWAY THIS INFORMATION. THEY TRIED TO GET MY BANK INFORMATION. THAT IS WHEN I CAUGHT ON.

THE FOOL THAT CALLED ME WENT BY THE NAME OF 'MARK HAMILTON'."
